The big news this weekend is that five-time world champion and current red-plate holder Tim Gajser will not make the trip to Agueda. Unfortunately, despite the best efforts of the rider and all the medical personnel helping the Slovenian since leaving Switzerland, the injury hasn’t improved enough to cope with the rigours of world motocross racing.
His main Championship rival, Romain Febvre, has finished second overall here in each of the last two years for Kawasaki Racing Team MXGP, and he would dearly like to go one better this weekend to hack into the Slovenian’s 27-point series lead.




Meanwhile, Maxime Renaux has been cleared fit to race. After a thorough medical evaluation and impressive progress in his recovery, Monster Energy Yamaha Factory MXGP’s Maxime Renaux has been officially cleared to compete in the MXGP of Portugal this weekend.
Other two riders to return behind the gate are Pauls Jonass and Mattia Guadagnini, who hasn´t competed since Round 2, the MXGP of Cózar.
The MX2 World Championship continues to see its momentum swing between the four leading protagonists, as Red Bull KTM Factory Racing star Simon Laengenfelder took a flawless double win in Switzerland, to reduce the gap at the top to just three points between him and Nestaan Husqvarna Factory Racing’s reigning World Champion Kay de Wolf.
